Elbow Arthritis

Elbow arthritis is a form of joint inflammation that affects the elbow, causing it to become painful and stiff. It is most common in individuals over the age of 50, but can affect anyone at any age. Symptoms include tenderness, swelling, and reduced range of motion in the elbow joint. Treatment for elbow arthritis includes medication, physical therapy, and lifestyle changes. Surgery may be an option for more severe cases. Elbow arthritis can significantly reduce the quality of life for those affected, with the potential to impair daily activities. Early diagnosis and treatment can help to reduce the severity of symptoms and improve mobility.
